<p>Madder ties have been a staple in the connoisseur's fall wardrobe for many decades. It is easy to appreciate the rich yet subtle colors of ancient Madder red, indigo blue, buff or green, but what exactly does Madder mean and why is it so popular?</p>
<p>Madder dye has been derived from the Rubua Rubiaceae plant for thousands of years, which is why it is often referred to as <em>ancient Madder</em>. The madder red color is created by using alizarine, which is obtained by grinding the roots of the plant. This procedure was necessary until the 1860s, when the red dye could be produced in a lab. Today, all madder colors are produced chemically, yet the name remains the same.</p>
<h2><strong>What makes this Madder tie by Fort Belvedere special?</strong></h2>
<p>1. <strong>Real Ancient Madder.</strong> Today, there a few that can print real madder fabrics. It is a difficult, multi-step silk screen print process and hence only the best silk qualities are used. Fort Belvedere sources real ancient Madder fabric from England. To produce a blue madder, for example, natural white base cloth is outlined with a pattern and highlight colors are applied to certain areas. Once the pattern printing is finished, the fabric is immersed in an indigo bath, rendering the omitted areas Madder blue.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Chalky feel.</strong> Madder ties are also known for their distinctive chalky feel, which is achieved by adding the formerly stripped natural gum back to the silk.
